I realize we are biased……but why or why not? I’m sure Steve Politi will have an opinion.

Can happen if enough teams ahead of that team look worse in a loss.I have never seen a team enter the poll because of a close loss. Deserving is questionable but will it happen? No way.

I agree.No. I'm not sure Michigan belongs there either. We're moving up but I think we're. 30-40 ranked team. Excited that this team has a personality again though and moving up. Continuously. We will be there. But not yet.
4-0 and the #1 rushing team before today. Silly questionA better question is should Michigan be ranked in the top 25. Very mediocre team. Or we are going to shock the world. Will take the latter in a heartbeat.

This is true but the problem is that the preseason rankings are the starting point, before anyone has even played a game. It's easier to maintain your position in the rankings than it is to climb the rankings, so a team that is overrated before the season starts has an unfair advantage. If we started the season ranked, we definitely would still be ranked now and if North Carolina started unranked, they wouldn't even be close (they surely won't be ranked anymore after getting crushed by Georgia Tech, but that's besides the point). But instead, since the pollsters had a high opinion of North Carolina and a low opinion of us before a single ball was kicked off, we are still far away and they are just falling out of the rankings now with 2 losses to unranked teams. Imagine if other sports started their season with some teams already ahead of others in the standings based on what are essentially some writers' and coaches' power rankings.I have never seen a team enter the poll because of a close loss.
